Just recently made the switch from a Galaxy Nexus to Nexus 4 and I'm wondering why CM10.1 for the N4 doesn't have color calibration settings. I'm not totally unhappy with the screen colors, but it does seem a bit less vibrant vs. my GNex.
[Nexus 4 General] Shano56:
Who knows...but install a custom kernel for custom color calibration
[Nexus 4 General] machoman1337:
Man, RC5 already?! This is insane, lol. Definitely a sign of CM10.1 being declared stable soon though!
[Nexus 4 General] Daniel_GT:
Stalling of Pie Control was fixed by a commit on 06th June, all nightlies since then have this. CM have not implemented gamma calibration into their kernel, you can review the history behind it on this gerrit submission. There are builds with this code built into the kernel, test builds here for instance... browse the last 10 or so pages of this thread and you'll learn more.
[Nexus 4 General] 1234568:
I've been thinking about how Google are turning to the play store to distribute many of their core apps instead of aosp. Take for example calendar, email and now keyboard. Will CM consider replacing the aosp versions of these apps in the rom with the play store versions?
[Nexus 4 General] 0.0:
It may be more for the phones with skinned Android, like HTC and Samsung. The AOSP keyboard is actually really good, imo. Having that available to them doesn't leave some consumers hanging

It'll also make it easier for all versions of Android to update core apps without updating the OS version all the time. It was like that during gingerbread and before

Think of Apple. None of their core apps are on the app store, thus only get updated with each OS version. Imagine if their core apps were on the app store. It would be easier for them to fix bugs or change it up within the year without pushing out an OS update. Google is just making it easier for themselves

So I think the apps will still be included in future cm and aosp ROMs

[Nexus 4 General] CMNein:
The Play store versions are closed source so CM can't include them in the ROM. Google threatened to sue CM a couple of years ago over just that, and thus Gapps zips were born.
[Nexus 4 General] 1234568:
I'm a little confused by your answer tbh. I completely agree that updating apps via the play store has numerous advantages over relying on aosp updates. Surely though that means that there's no need to have them in the ROM?

---------- Post added at 11:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:07 PM ----------

So in short CM feels it's better to include the aosp versions then omit them and leave users to download the latest versions from the play store... right?

Edit. I've just realised I'm being dense. CM doesn't include them. I installed them with GAPPS. Oops. Sorry guys!

Where is the commit for the traditional notification toggles widget if I wanted it to be cherry picked to another rom?
[Nexus 4 General] bleuwave:
How do I get better colors with the cm stock kernel? Do I need to flash a custom ROM for colors? I don't really want to if I can achieve it on stock cm kernel.

Edit: not looking for anything too custom just acceptable if anyone has any files to put somewhere and forget for colors that'd be great
[Nexus 4 General] negroplasty:
If you want to stay on the stock kernel you'll need to flash an unofficial build. Something like this or one that includes similar cherry-picks.

Is there a CM10/ halo kang anywhere yet?
[Nexus 4 General] nexusmaniac:
I'm currently working on merging halo into cyanogenmod but it's a lot harder than I thought it would be :)
[Nexus 4 General] thracemerin:
That's because the PA frameworks are much closer to AOSP than the CM frameworks since the CM frameworks have to be modded for non-AOSP device support.

Could someone help me with this - is there any way to disable quick-launch functionality? I don't use it, but it comes annoying when accidental long-press on the home icon brings up the quick launch circle and takes focus away from active app...
[Nexus 4 General] omer7:
Go to settings, system, quick launch shortcuts, long press the dotted circle there and click on google now when it appears. Now from options select None.

Try it. Hopefully it shd work.
[Nexus 4 General] vladm7:

Why would you want that? Just because custom kernels have other features doesn't mean you need to use them all.

Is there a comprehensive list of all the differences between CM and the stock ROM?
[Nexus 4 General] calanizzle:
too much, go over YouTube videos..
[Nexus 4 General] azrash:
This is from the built in changelogs. Some features are not added into the list yet.

Flowed from my Nexus⁴
[Nexus 4 General] Maddmatt:
Not what I'm looking for.

I want to see a comprehensive list of all the tweaks and changes, not just the obvious major features like themes and profiles.

The changelogs seem to be the closest thing to that, thanks Azrash.

Many of the custom ROMs have the problem of not actually telling users what they change, which hardly encourages you to try them out.

Anyway I went ahead and flashed CM, switched over from ParanoidAndroid. Liking it so far. Misses a few things I liked in PA but also has some differences I do like, so I'll stick with it for now.

Wish I could shrink the Nav bar and status bar, but I know CM have their reasons for not allowing that.
[Nexus 4 General] azrash:
on the Nav bar thing, CM won't go against the Android Design Guidelines. There are CM based ROMs that have cherry picked these options. I am using one that has experimental Halo.

With regards to changelogs, it is quite hard for CM to maintain one now since they are still developing the ROM, and there might be new features added or removed each week and with the numbers of devices that they support, it is quite difficult to maintain that kind of changelogs. You can check http://mobile.10.1.cmxlog.com/?device=mako for the daily changes that happens in nightlies.

Most likely, once CM releases a stable version, they'll list down the features that they includes. Hope this'll help.

The capital G was making the CTS not work which was causing problems, you may think switching G to g is trivial, but things like this can have serious ramifications especially when its in the product identifier.

Hey guys, is it possible that i have a worse battery than stock ? i use the exact same app, and same custom kernel (Faux's kernel) configured the same way ..

I think if the build is run outside of the standard cycle (as in started manually) it gets marked as experimental by Jenkins.
[Nexus 4 General] Raza Qadri:
Q1-There used to builds called M-builds why did they stopped making them?

Q2-If i am not wrong In dirty flash you have to wipe dalvik & cache before flashing new build?
[Nexus 4 General] azrash:
They are now RC builds, release candidate builds, which are essentially the same, just that RC is used when it is closer to a stable release.

2. You don't have to, it will rebuild the dalvik cache anyway

I have been building with linaro 4.7 for a while now and have recently started using 4.8. It occurred to me that the commits relevant to vanilla CM source (rather than pimped variants) might be useful to other self-builders.

Firstly, to modify your source base for 4.7 you'll need two commits;

https://github.com/Daniel-GT/lge-kernel-mako/commit/b19ccdd4c756e97e7b20800b6a8c826304d954a2

https://github.com/Daniel-GT/android_build/commit/3a67975bd0250c59439ffaabe97d39a265162b86

Then following the application of these you can modify again for 4.8 by cherry-picking these two;

https://github.com/Daniel-GT/lge-kernel-mako/commit/0e3a34358f30c76fedec6891824970c875b362fc

https://github.com/Daniel-GT/android_build/commit/5b69e2934e32fe8f8a255d35245ac4ed08536aa3

Depending on if you've decided to modify for 4.7 only or modified again for 4.8, you'll need a 4.7 or 4.8 toolchain to build with in your repo (I use a local manifest, though you could copy and paste I suppose), do make sure the path is correct. I use codefirex's prebuilt ones (thanks and acknowledgement to him) which can be found here;

https://bitbucket.org/codefirex/prebuilts_gcc_linux-x86_arm_arm-eabi-4.7

Hey guys.

I live in Russia and my home network is 5Ghz. It's only visible if I set location to "Japan, Russia". It works for some time, but if the phone reboots (or just after some time) settings are cleared out and there's no selected option at all in locations. I'm tired of constant switching it on.

This is happening on all CM-based ROMs so I guess the bug is kinda global.

Does somebody know why this keeps happening?
[Nexus 4 General] Fr33L4nc3r:
For obvious and easily reproducible issues (just tried and I confirm), you can directly open an item on JIRA.

I had one setting issue (automatically set on reboot) and it got fixed. Don't hope to have it fixed in the week though ;)

Feature Request: Disable full screen text field on landscape keyboard

(Especially on an app like Whatsapp, where in group threads, by the time you've typed out the message and hit send, someone could've already made your response obsolete and you wouldn't have been able to see it till you sent it)

Is there a way to do it on the STOCK keyboard provided in CM?

I know some other keyboards do provide this option, but after the numerous keyboards I've tried, the stock keyboard worked the best for me.

CM's feature list isn't as long as some of the other ROM's but whatever I've needed has always worked for me, except for this small keyboard issue

[Nexus 4 General] sixaxis94:
It's a month old.. Sad to see nothing's been done about it. It would be really useful, especially considering the extra real estate you get with phones that are 4.7" to 5.5", it doesn't make sense to make the text field take up all the screen.

I just want a stable rom for my phone as of now. I can live without this tweak :P

---------- Post added at 11:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:36 PM ----------

An unrelated question.. On this rom, is there a kernel that would give me better battery life? I'm happy with it right now, but wouldn't mind getting more out of it

Another thing I just found out on another ROM was auto hiding the status bar, so you can pull it down even if your app is full screened. This would be really useful too. One of the very few things I miss from iOS
[Nexus 4 General] azrash:
That pull down thing is available in Der_Schubi build as well. I have been using his build for a few weeks now.

For kernels, most would strive for better battery life. I am just happy with _m+ kernel, continued by thracemerin.

Compiling nonrooted CM10.1

So here is my situation. I agree people will find this crazy and it is crazy up to some extent but I want to give it a try.

I have set up CM build environment and successfully compiled my own RC5 version of CM10.1 without a problem. Now all I want is to build a working CM10.1 without root. I do not want to achieve this by remove the su binary after flashing the ROM or removing the su binary from /system/xbin/ folder and then flashing it. I want koush/superuser not to compile and not to put the su binary in the /system/xbin folder (assuming that it is possible). I have tried several options and still exploring. I thought this might give me some ideas.

Options I have tried

Modify the cm10.1.0-RC5.xml manifest to remove the packages/superuser

Doing this failed to build the recovery and eventually the build stopped​

Now I removed the bootable/recovery from the manifest but it still won't build​

I kind of feel that the make files present in vendor/cm/config/ might have to do something with what I am trying to achieve​

I am a noob in handling android make files and make files in general​

So I ask the awesome developers at XDA and in this Q&A thread to get some ideas. You can bluntly say that it is possible or it's not. You can also say that I am crazy and what I want with an unrooted CyanogenMod but I really want it. The reason is the Barclays Mobile Banking app does not work on rooted devices and I want to use that app. Thus, I want to try a unrooted CM version (assuming that it is possible) and check whether the Barclays Mobile banking app would work on it. If it does, I am happy. Anyway it will be a fun experience for me. Please feel free to suggest me in the compilation process.

Coz i have read somewhr that franco kernel makes some changes in ramdisk, so if i restore cm nandroid (including cm kernel), will those changes made by franco kernel still b thr or removed after restoring?

Yeap it has already did, since nandroid is a full image of your phone excluding the internal storage. No need to dirty flash again.
